    10 out of 10 just for pissing off the alt-right snowflakes. Reading their negative reviews is hilarious and just goes to show how sad they are.

    If you're upset about a guy shooting a bunch of nazis who've invaded another country, then you're on the wrong side of the fence.

    I entered this franchise with RTCW: Tides of War back on the original Xbox. It is one of my favourite games of all time, so naturally I compare all the sequels to it. The first two games were passable, this one is as well, barely.

    I could easily give this game less than a 5, but I do have to point out the good parts of it which make it passable.

    First off, the gun play is great in my opinion, I like the recoil, I like the heavy variants of weapons, and I like the sounds effects of all the weapons. The weapon upgrading system is also a neat touch, but not too amazing from an innovative point of view.

    Second, the perk system is great for adapting to your style of play, whether it is stealth based or guns blazing, perks are earned around your play style and are not too overpowering.

    Third, I think the game looks pretty great. I have read on other reviews that they have been having issues with FPS and whatnot (more so on PC), but on PS4 Pro on 4K, the game looks great.

    The positives end there unfortunately. The negatives tempted me to give this game a failing score.

    As others have mentioned before me, video games are an escape from reality, and used as time to unwind. THEY ARE NOT meant to be a platform for voicing your political concerns as a developer, whether it was Bethesda or Machine Games, gamers do not need, nor want, political ideologies (left or right) injected into these games. It is an absolute disgrace to push a leftist ideology and draw parallels between a nazi-controlled United States and the Trump administration. LEAVE IT OUT.

    I do not support Trump and I have no problem with the nazi killing aspect, as this was what Wolfenstein has always been about. I just do not believe that ideologies should be pushed in this type of platform.

    Beyond that glaringly obvious con, the enemy AI is really questionable sometimes. There are moments when you can be crouched in plain sight and they will not detect you. It really ruins the challenge and immersion.

    Why on Earth would you ever include this sensitive, emotional, and (again) political background story for BJ? He is now someone who grew up with an abusive, racist father, who did not approve of his interracial childhood friendship? This completely ruins the tough, relentless, borderline psychotic, personality that BJ had through the first couple entries in the franchise. This may not matter to some people, but to me, they softened BJ up completely and killed some of the immersion built up from the previous games. Hard to accept as a life long ID Software fan.

    Characters are somewhat weak, with a few good ones mixed in. Story is nothing amazing, and seems pretty sarcastic at some points. Definitely not meant to be taken seriously. Alongside this, the level design seems a bit poor, kind of makes some of the gun fights seem repetitive.

    Overall, I cannot bring myself to give this game higher than a 5, I had high expectations for Bethesda to make this game great after The New Order laid out a solid foundation, and after I played the masterpiece that was Doom, my expectations went even higher, and this probably hurt the value for me in the end. There just wasn't enough innovation and improvement over the predecessor to justify a higher score or $60 price tag. Bethesda should definitely consider bringing more ideas from ID back to this franchise, if a third instalment is planned.    … Expand

    Game play is very satisfactory, nothing like killing nazis. Game story is over the top but when you have that in mind it is awesome. The guns are unique and very satisfying to use, love to dual wield shotguns and can't beat the Lasergewehr, wish it could be used longer with a single charge.

    Every weapon in this game has a certain meaty punch to them, with a decent perk and upgrade system to go with them. Overall, despite what people say, there is plenty of gameplay here and machine games has included side operations too, as a sort of shield from complaints that its too short, and they work fine if just readjustments to the same maps in the world.

    Looking back on this game overall, I was in constant state of enjoyment, and that I cannot deny, there are very mixed opinions in terms of users for this game, and all i can say is you might hate it or love it. But its certainly worth finding out, because this game is surprisingly creative.    … Expand

The bad, color or rather lack thereof, the game is really monochromatic. The cut scenes have nice color, i just wish they would have splashed more of it in the real time enviroment. Running and moving it is easy to get caught up on the destructable enviroment making for some frustrating fails in long fire fights. I little more forgiving particle density for ground cover that used to be on the wall might fix that . The ugly, the sound, ack even with headphones on you are always looking for the sound cues, it is not that the game does not suppy them, they are plenty, witty and fun, they are just in no way helpful in order to locate the enemy that they are coming from . Incoming weapon damage is difficult to measure the direction it is coming and seems
    extremely non linear. In summation , W2TNC is a fast paced shoot em up save the world from Nazi fun fest during a time in history most of us never thought we would see. Its monochromatic beauty is filled with easter eggs and awesome destructable enviroments. The flow of this almost perfect game is thrown off when you die atop a pile of health that you were not picking up because it is one of the few games I can think off that makes you do this manually/including ammo and shields. It also is interrupted when you stubb your toe on a splinter from a desk you blew up and a rocket hits you, that is putting a little to much reality into my escapism .Leveling up the weapons was a joy and I really found rooting around the enviroments rewarding. I fell like this game was so close to one of the best fps ever.    … Expand

    and one of the most brutal openings to a video game I’ve ever experienced..
    You don’t stay this way forever thanks to a body suit you’re able to walk again…
    This time the game takes place in America...
    Once again in an alternate history where the Nazis won the war…
    seeing how this win affected America is thought provoking, and full of emotion…
    Easily one of the most impactful campaigns I’ve ever played through in a shooter…
    Here you’re starting to spark a revolution and take back America, killing some Nazi scum…
    Wolfenstein 2 is a much more compact game compared to the original, this time only taking around 6 and a half hours to complete…
    But it’s an enjoyable 6 and a half hours...
    much more linear as well with the same concepts of taking out scouts so they don’t trigger alarms, and stealthing through areas or going in guns blazing…
    The weapon variety isn’t as vast, but you have your typical base weapons you’d expect in most shooters... but to bring some variety in, your guns are all upgradable, allowing you to add a perk to give them an entirely different feel….
    The level design isn’t that great this time around…
    it feels pretty dull and generic…
    The greatness comes in the setting and the story telling…
    when the game puts you into perspective of the world around you..
    Without the great story pieces, this is still a good shooter… but just good...
    There are no epic fights or showdowns…
    Just a bunch of running from point a to b and shooting everything in your way…
    it plays and feels how you’d expect, but no moments outside of cut scenes blew me away
    I love how the story was delivered though, in ways you wouldn’t expect and are surprising each time…
    This game will break your heart, it will give you hope, it will take it away…
    for those reasons alone, you owe it to yourself to play through this first person shooter…

    Its full of typical mindless portrayals of people. This ones a redneck, that ones a communist....just disappointingly simplistic.

    Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus is a solid and good shooter game that definitely has some charm and appeal for those wishing to kill some Nazis, but it also commits some flaws on its form and structure that holds it back from being a worthy sequel and even worse a great game of its own nature. Before I go into some depth of why I think this way I would like to state I have playedWolfenstein 2: The New Colossus is a solid and good shooter game that definitely has some charm and appeal for those wishing to kill some Nazis, but it also commits some flaws on its form and structure that holds it back from being a worthy sequel and even worse a great game of its own nature. Before I go into some depth of why I think this way I would like to state I have played Wolfenstein The New Order and beat it so to not have some comparison to its previous entry is going to be inevitable. Here are my views of the game:

    Things I like about Wolfenstein 2:
    1. Combat- The visceral, explosive and colorful sounds of Nazis being killed is always cathartic for me. I always take great pleasure in taking out as many as I can in a frenzy. This is The New Colossus's greatest strength and it shows well.
    2. World building - Collectibles are mostly good. I particularly like the music and documents along with the concept art that goes to show a believable world despite having a futuristic vibe.
    3. Character development- A significant improvement over the first game. The characters feel more than expository dumps and actually have more emotions.
    4. Slaughtering Nazis - This goes without saying and its so freaking great.
    5. Story - Surprisingly good writing in this game. Despite some issues for a big dumb action movie like script it actually has some clever moments.
    6. Weapon upgrades and perks are cool but they dont really all have the same value and some perk trees are far superior to others.
    7. Contraptions are good implementations that allow you try different approaches in areas like jumping, stretching and ramming. Adding perks on that is pretty good too.
    8. Music is great: Mick Gordon is a talented composer and musician. He is nowhere near DOOM's height, but still provides good music tracks for the ears.

    Things I dislike:
    1. Easy to die: The difficulty is too harsh and the power fantasy of killing Nazis loses its edge very easily when your health drops in the blink of an eye on even normal mode. By my 20 death count, I was already getting a bit tired.
    2. Weapon balance issues. If I can spam dual Shotguns through most of the game, then thats not good. There is hardly anything new that the sequel didnt already have. Dual wielding different types feels arbitrary and having to switch them on the fly in a firefight is tedious.
    3. First half of the story feels too slow and the second half feels too fast. I would have preferred a third part to show the actual revolution taking place, but the next game will do that I guess.
    4. You end levels by going to the objective and holding a button, disrupting the flow and have awkward moments where enemies you fight vanish in cutscenes. The UI for navigating areas is clunky and dull.
    6. Assassinating targets from the main game is boring and just padding with previous levels reused. shouldve fused them into the main game.
    7. Lots of glitches, bugs and hiccups that demand immediate fixes but not surprised anymore from a big name publisher.

    Things I'm indifferent on:
    1. Race and political commentary undertones. This is clearly trying to parallel civil rights and lots of African American, KKK, Communism and American exceptionalism seems to be rooted in this game, but some of it feels like shock value than actual critiques of the systems.
    2. Stealth is improved from the first but still feels awkward as enemies can wonky on their ais and feels like the flip of a coin on whether your tactics will work or just force you to go guns blazing.
    3. Enemy variety is lacking, but they do look more visually interesting. The first game had a solid foundation and much of the same this game has. I was expecting more from this and while there is some new enemies, there doesnt feel like theres enough to change up the tactics.
    4. Textures look great on some things and absolutely horrendous on others (like last gen level bad). This is something to see for yourself.
    5. Exploration feels like it needs more options like DOOM. There are definitely some secret areas, but it feels linear that I cant resist calling it a bit bland.
    6. Cutscenes sometimes go on for too long (overdramatizing) and some are jarring, but some are great and really well done.

    I respect Wolfenstein 2, but I cant help but feel its retreading the same ground as TNO instead of being its own game and story. The sequel bait ending, season pass DLC and preorder mission bonus all feel like the game is nowhere near complete and for a game costing $60 bucks that will take you 20-25 hours to 100% that feels like salt in the wound. Its worth a purchase for Wolfenstein fans and even shooter psychos wanting Nazi blood, but The New Colossus sacrifices too much to play safe despite some interesting moments it brings.    … Expand

    It's easy to get lost in the sheer brutality of the opening Acts. The story is darker, the characters more vulnerable, and the stakes even higher. Enemies don't merely get shot, but "shredded". The graphics - in parts - are truly spectacular, and I never had an issue with the frame rate.

    So, why the 6?

    My biggest issues (1) It runs out of steam in its final acts, (2) the raw brutality is replaced by nonsensical jests, and (3) the level designs begin to all bleed together.

    The opening chapters - Ya, Ya, I know they're political/liberal - really do add some intriguing psychological layers to BJ and questions the ruthlessness of his carnage. In addition, Engel (initially) ranks up there with some of the greatest video game villains of all time. I kept thinking of The Governor from the Walking Dead comics - an ingenius sadist who (sadly) is always one step ahead.

    Unfortunately, after the "execution" - a true highlight of the game - the story becomes lost in its absurdity and loses all emotional weight. A horrid past is replaced with drunken Pig racing. Engel's omnipotent presence is made into a gameshow joke (seriously?) I completed the campaign feeling robbed and honestly thinking - did the developers forget what they were doing? Did they lose their nerve?

    Level Design - Despite coming out in 2015, the levels in TNO were much more memorable. There's nothing that matches the thrills of the Bridge level, the viciousness of the concentration camp, or the triumph of surmounting Castle Wolfenstein. While the graphics are vastly superiors in TNC, the levels felt bland and repetitive.

    Overall - For all the provocative trailers and grisly opening, TNC sadly withdraws from its savagery in favor for insanity.    … Expand

    Lot of 0's from outrage culture people who deep down really don't even care about what they are crying about but love to jump on the outrage train. It's sad what society has become these days with skin as thick as a piece of paper.

    Absolutely unplayable and broken gameplay mechanics. It's simply boring to shoot and die again and again because of enemies are too strong even on normal difficulty, damage indicators are really don't make you feel like you're under fire, weapons has enormous recoil, and you can only have 50 hp max. Seems like this game was developed by some newbies, not that people who created good gamesAbsolutely unplayable and broken gameplay mechanics.

    This game takes everything that worked well in the first one, redesigned everything that didn't work that well in the first one, added a way more emotional and character-driven story (as well as A LOT of crazy happenings that will make your jaw drop or you tears run from laughter) and mixed it all into one helluva great game. Slaughtering nazis have never ever felt this good before!This game takes everything that worked well in the first one, redesigned everything that didn't work that well in the first one, added a way more emotional and character-driven story (as well as A LOT of crazy happenings that will make your jaw drop or you tears run from laughter) and mixed it all into one helluva great game. Slaughtering nazis have never ever felt this good before!

    Thanks to a very good map design and a lot of interesting collectibles (as well as many "readable" newspapers, diaries, letters etc which gives you insight not only into the life of the nazi soldiers but also into the lifes of the normal americans and recently arrived germans) It took me just about 20 hours from start to end on medium difficulty. The map design and all the collectibles as well as the opportunity to sneak around all enemies to try and take out the officers first (only the officers can raise the alarm and call for reinforcements) makes you actually wanting to find out what happened in the very different cities you're visiting.

    All in all, this game was a blast! Great gunplay with the possibility to upgrade almost every weapon, great level design, very graphically improved from the last game along with new shaders and lightning, great character-driven story and a lot of crazy moments that will make you remember this game for a long time makes for an extremely well crafted old school fps in a world filled with multiplayer games and loot boxes. Kudos Machine Games!    … Expand

    Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is one of my favorite games so far. What could be more funny than kill a tons of nazis. I liked second part more than first one but this part is very short.

    Amazing game. Amazing gameplay, fps mechanics and story. Love the way they've managed to balance story progression with some great action. All the negative reviews come from butt hurt Nazis.

    Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is an FPS that makes a ton of good to great decisions, but also a handful of poor ones. Tightly crafted gameplay is marred by adherence to genre conventions, and the narrative gets off to a slow start as the game decides what it wants to be. However, neither of those are enough to drag this down too much, as it is simply too well put together and has more than enough personality and fun to poke through the layer of seriousness draped over the first parts of the campaign. What is left is a game that can stand as a very fine example of its genre, if not quite a groundbreaking one.

    The second part continues in the footsteps of its predecessor and does not bring any major changes. However, it brings a hectic, explosive action accompanied by an excellent, though sometimes too exaggerative story.

    Shocking, silly and brutal, BJ's comeback spins an enjoyable, if tonally confused, yarn. Despite its issues, this is still a rollicking thoughtfully driven shooter. [Christmas 2017, p.93]
